WELLNESS &
SAFETY NOTES™
A Few Things to Know About Mangoes
1. CHOOSING A RIPE MANGO
A ripe mango will usually:
- Give slightly when gently squeezed
- Have a sweet, fruity aroma near the stem
- Show vibrant color depending on the variety
- Feel heavy for its size
Grace Note™:
Color alone does not always indicate ripeness.
2. STORING MANGOES
Unripe Mangoes
- Store at room temperature.
- Allow them to ripen naturally.
Ripe Mangoes
- Refrigerate for up to 5 days.
- Cut mango should be stored in an airtight container.
3. MANGO ALLERGY AWARENESS
While mangoes are enjoyed by many people worldwide, some individuals may experience allergic reactions.
Possible symptoms may include:
- Itching around the mouth
- Skin irritation or rash
- Hives
- Swelling of the lips or throat
- Digestive discomfort
- Difficulty breathing (seek immediate medical attention)
People sensitive to poison ivy, poison oak, or poison sumac may be more likely to react to mango peel because they contain similar natural compounds.
4. WHEN TO SPEAK WITH
YOUR HEALTHCARE PROVIDER
Consider speaking with a healthcare professional or allergist if:
- You experience symptoms after eating mango
- You have a history of food allergies
- You are introducing mango to a child with known allergies
- You are unsure whether symptoms are food-related
5. STEWARDSHIP REMINDER
The goal of wellness is not fear.
The goal of wellness is wisdom.
Learning how your body responds to food is part of honoring the body God has entrusted to you.
